It was this text, plus a clip of the ending of the Believe performance....where he hits the high notes and shows Cher's "wow" Lenny Wee December 29, 2018 · Had the best time creating this orchestral arrangement of Cher’s “Believe” for Adam Lambert at the Kennedy Center honors, along with fantastic electronic programming by Miguel Gandelman. I think we managed to make some magic here bro! #kch #cher #believe #arranger #orchestra #adamlambert #musician There are also a couple of interesting comments from Lenny responding to others. I didn't know how to insert a screen shot of it but here are the comments: Emory Davis: This was similar to the one he sang on the show during Hollywood week without the orchestration of course right Lenny Wee: I did a lot of reharm on this one...and came up with different the ending. But yeah similar vibe! David Bawiec: DUUUUUDE! I’d been listening on repeat to this one! You did this?!? The new chords are f*%$in’ brilliant!!!! 😍 Lenny Wee: Thanks!....the melody hangs on 2,5 and 1 for the most part, so quite a lot of options for reharm. Most of my reharm was done by creating an ascending baseline and harmonizing on top of it. Bruce Thomas: My wife and I saw it and she said, "That song was never that good before" and I said, "Yeah, take away the disco-beat, autotune and echo stuff, write some nice changes and an imaginative arrangement, and get a great singer . . . and now it is!"

He may have been asked and had to cancel because he's got the flu.

Thanks to Lurleene for mentioning the Sam Cooke documentary on Netflix yesterday. I really enjoyed watching it.
Sam is my favorite male singer but Adam is a close number 2.

For those without FB, interesting bio on Lenny Wee. He used to be Office Manager for Minor Productions 2008-2010 and American Idol Arranger/Orchestrator/Engineer · February 2009 to May 2010. Must have been working for Ricky Minor for 10 years and must have known Adam back then. He went to Berklee College of Music and is from Singapore.

I was watching American Crime Story/The Assassination of Gianni Versace and I had to give it up. Just couldn't finish it. With Darren Criss winning so many awards I thought I would tune in. And I remember hearing about the killing spree so I was familiar with what it would be about. But it was WAY too freaky and dark for me. If Adam continues his acting (I think he will) I can't imagine him in a role that ugly. It will take me some time to get that image of Criss out of my mind, lol. I see why he won the awards cause he payed that part too well. I hope Adam feels better soon. I have not missed getting a flu shot since I had the flu some 20 years ago. Thought I was dying. I enjoyed it all the way thru. Yes, it was dark and ugly....but so was the real story. I thought Judith Light was very good in it as well as Darren and enjoyed Ricky Martin as the lover/bf. I see lots of similarities in Ricky and Adam...I think Adam could have played that part, but Ricky had the Miami/Latin flare for the role. We know that Ryan Murphy wanted and got Adam for Glee, I wish he'd put him in one of his AHS episodes or another Crime Story or one of his other projects. I know Adam would love to have a small role on AHS.
